Cima Vezzana (3192 m) the highest elevation of the Pale di San Martino Group in the Italian Dolomites.
In contrast to many other peaks of the Pala group, Cima Vezzana is not considered an important climbing mountain because of its fragile rock, but is mainly known for its two normal routes. One of these climbs leads from Passo Travignolo to the summit as a marked path of difficulty I (UIAA). The easiest access to the pass is from Rifugio Rosetta through Val dei Cantoni, but it can also be reached via the Bolver-Lugli via ferrata (grade C/D) or from the north via the Travignolog glacier. The second ascent leads from the east through the Val Strut to the Vezzana, overcoming climbing areas of difficulty I and the short via ferrata Gabitta D'Ignoti.The Rifugio Rosetta or Gares are suitable starting points for this route.
This routes combines the both normal routes, and that makes it really long tour for one day. Also it has the Bolver-Lugli on the way down, a better option could be to reverse the direction of this tour. That said, I enjoyed the day a lot with amazing views all around.
